Knoxville in time for lunch. I wish we could have stayed for the game, but that would have meant another day on the road. No thank you, drive Gene, drive.
That kiss sound you can still hear is me kissing the ground as I rolled out of the car about 9:30pm. My mantra most of the afternoon "Why is it we did not fly?"We did listen to the USC/Florida game in the afternoon. Roll over Chickens, Florida had true freshmen on the field the entire 4th quarter. We skipped the Carolina Crybaby Post game show on the radio (really Todd Ellis, cut the mullet and the whining) to listen to the Vols get whipped by Alabama, I can say this, the Volunteers stayed with Alabama (#1 in the country) much longer than the Chickens stayed with the Gators (#2 in the country).
I know that The Chickens plan to regain respectability by beating the Vols this week, but while the Vols will be on the losing end of the scoreboard, the Chickens will cluck and peck for that win.
My prediction: Chickens, keep on thinking that the next 4 games will be easy wins. The Terriers will be in town soon to bite your necks and shake you all over the field. The Terriers are 5 and 1, having lost only to Georgia Southern. They have beaten much larger schools all season, including Appalachian State the same day the Vols and the Chickens croaked. The Wofford Terriers are the best football team in the state, have the best SAT scores, the best graduation rates, and best post graduate school enrollment (yes, not many go onto pro-football glory). Wofford is also the highest rated college or university, public or private in South Carolina in yearly published ratings. Wofford ranked in the top 40 to 60 in four publications in 2011. Furman was the only other SC college or university in the top 100. USC and Clemson did make it in the top 300 southern college or university rankings.
